Hey, I'm Marit, 22, and I'm from the Netherlands. Currently I'm studying for primary school teacher and I also work in a Dutch language school.

I really like travelling, so in all my spare weekends I'm looking for a way to make a nice trip. I've done workaways and au pairing and now some couch surfing too, which I really love!

I could host some guests too, but before you send a request, please read my profile and especially about my home, thanks!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and learning more about different cultures and languages! I was able to do this when I worked as an au pair, but that was only long term. I missed this part of travelling when I was travelling for shorter term, so that's why I decided to try out couch surfing!

Interests

I like reading books a lot, mainly fiction but recently I got more interested in non-fiction and I pick up every book that gets me interested, which mostly is history and languages, so if you want some random facts, I can provide! But I'm also interested in a lot of other things, so if you could tell me something fascinating, I'm happy to hear.

I also like drinking tea a lot, especially in winter (summers are for ice tea), so if you're staying here you might suffer from indecisiveness when you want to choose the flavour for your tea.

A hobby of mine is also being creative, whether it's drawing, painting, photography, writing or something else, it makes me happy. But, don't expect anything because I'm equally bad at all of them.

I love to get outside too, for a hike, a picknick, reading a book in a park or a trip in a canoe. Preferably in nice weather, but also bad weather won't stop me :)
